Abstract

The present invention concerns a brake caliper and a method for assembly of a brake mechanism for a disc brake in said caliper. The caliper surrounds the brake disc on both sides and has a cavity for receiving the brake mechanism. The caliper is of an open design having an opening in the wall furthest from the brake disc. The inside of the caliper may be machined through the opening, before the brake mechanism is assembled in the caliper.
